2013 Mazda Ratings, Reviews and Awards

Mazda’s compact, sporty, and trendy cars make for a great 2013 lineup. The Mazda3 sedan has received a notable update, with its four-cylinder engine and 2.0L liter displacement. The Mazda3’s six-speed manual transmission has a compression ratio of 12:1, which grants it an enviable 34 mpg of highway fuel economy. Similarly, the Mazda CX-5 crossover uses a four-cylinder 2.0L 153 horsepower engine to produce 150 lb-ft of torque, making it a good fit for any weekend getaway. With the CX-5’s 39 highway miles per gallon of fuel economy, it’s hard to beat while still using a gasoline engine. Mazda’s MX-5 Miata convertible is also updated in 2013, using a 2.0L four-cylinder engine to produce 165 horsepower and 7000 rpm. The Miata’s low 49.4 inches of height guarantee that its aesthetics and aerodynamics work to complement each other.
